Structural field geologist at Cardiff University; earthquakes, creepy faults, water, melt and rock deformation. Long runs keep me sane (he says...).

Someone is discussing lower crustal #Earthquakes in Nusfjord! Enlightening #fieldwork in northern #Norway with @LucyAtFault Ake Fagereng @ffusseis Earth Sci @ Plymouth for our Natural Environment Research Council project
Cracking first day in the field for the earth science team checking out the Bilila Mtakataka Fault scarp and knickpoint at Mua 🇲🇼 ⚒️ Luke Wedmore Juliet Biggs Jack Williams @faulty-jack.bsky.social Ake Fagereng
First station occupied for our 2018 GPS campaign in Lengwe National Park!! 🤞the local water buffalo don’t find it 😃 #geodesy #Malawi Luke Wedmore Juliet Biggs Jack Williams @faulty-jack.bsky.social Ake Fagereng
Successful day-2 of PREPARE workshop. Students from 3 Malawi universities estimating seismic moments from 3D models of faults. With Luke Wedmore Jack Williams @faulty-jack.bsky.social Juliet Biggs Ake Fagereng Bristol Geophysics
Our PREPARE earthquake risk conference was formally opened today by our guest of honour: Surveyor General of Malawi Government🇲🇼 and PVC University of Malawi. Followed by excellent panels on Resilient Buildings, Earthquake Hazards and Implementation. Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) University of Bristol Earth Sciences Cardiff School of Earth & Environmental Sciences
Earthquake scenario exercises and brick testing with local stakeholders, plus developing a policy brief for multihazard resilience. A busy last two days at the UK-Malawi earthquake risk workshop! University of Malawi #seismicresilience #capacitybuilding
New paper with Adam Beall - talk version coming up at AGU on Thursday morning!
I've tried to explain slow slip and what we learned from scientific drilling in the Hikurangi input sediments, offshore New Zealand, with the teams on #exp372 #exp375 IODP at Texas A&M. theconversation.com/how-we-discove… via The Conversation
Can geologic and geodetic data be used to assess seismic hazard in regions with little historical, instrumental or paleseismic records? We've used this approach to assess seismic hazard in southern Malawi, with the results just published #openaccess in Solid Earth 👇 1/7
'Is complex fault zone behaviour a reflection of rheological heterogeneity?' by Ake Fagereng and myself is out now and is open access! We review fault-zone deformation styles and model how these may relate to varying stress and rheology with depth. royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…
